2 Controller Area Network (CAN) SIMPLE CAN DESIGN FAN CONTROL EXAMPLE: SOLUTION SIMPLE SENSOR NODE The CAN bus (Controller Area Network) protocol was designed to be a high-speed, reliable communication protocol for command and control network applications. Microchip offers a complete line of products to meet the needs of highperformance embedded applications using the CAN protocol, including 8- and 16-bit microcontrollers (MCUs) with integrated CAN, stand-alone CAN controllers, CAN I/O expanders and CAN transceivers. As CAN continues to grow and proliferate into other markets, the need to add CAN to simple sensor circuits increases. In some applications, a simple CAN sensor node can be cost prohibitive due to the higher cost of using a microcontroller with integrated CAN modules. Often the microcontrollers with integrated CAN have extra peripherals, program memory, RAM, etc. which the simple sensor application does not need. In addition to MCUs with integrated CAN, Microchip offers a low cost stand-alone CAN controller with SPI interface (MCP2515) which can be paired up with the desired MCU to create an optimized CAN node. The designer does not have to settle for the peripherals offered by an MCU with integrated CAN, but rather the designer can choose the MCU which best matches the application. Additionally, the four pins used by the MCU for SPI can be regained by using the general purpose inputs and outputs on the MCP2515. The schematic shown below represents a very simple, low cost CAN solution. MCP2515 Stand-alone CAN Controller Features: Implements CAN V2.0B at 1Mb/s Masks and filters to filter out unwanted messages Two receive buffers Three transmit buffers High speed SPI interface (10 MHz) Low voltage operation ( V) One shot mode to ensure a message transmission is only attempted once Start-Of-Frame (SOF) signal pin to detect CAN start-of-frame Data byte filtering of the first two data bytes Clock out pin with prescaler can be used as a clock source Interrupt output pin with selectable interrupt enables Two buffer full pins (can be used as general purpose outputs) Three request-to-send pins (can be used as general purpose inputs) 18-pin PDIP and SOIC, 20-pin TSSOP Development Tool Support: MCP2510/2515 CAN Developer s Kit (DV251001) MCP2515 CAN Controller PICtail Demonstration Board (MCP2515DM-PCTL) Simple Sensor Node Using MCP2515 Stand-alone CAN Controller MCP2551 CAN Transceiver CAN Bus PIC12F875 MCU MCP2515 CAN Controller Analog Input X Used as General Purpose Inputs General Purpose Output MCU recovers I/O used for SPI (GP1-GP5) Product specifications can be found on page Interface Products Design Guide

3 Controller Area Network (CAN) CAN DESIGN EXAMPLE: ADDING CAN TO EXISTING APPLICATIONS Existing applications that require the addition of CAN will find that the MCP2515 can be used to add CAN connectivity to any application ranging from low-end simple sensor applications, to high-end DSP, 32-bit MCU, ASIC, etc. The diagram below shows CAN added to a high-end application, as many high-end processors do not have embedded CAN peripherals. Dual CAN Node The MCP2515 can be used to easily add dual CAN capabilities for a given node. Product specifications can be found on page 13. Interface Products Design Guide 3

4 Controller Area Network (CAN) CAN DESIGN EXAMPLE: SIMPLE SENSOR NETWORK USING CAN I/O EXPANDER MCP250XX CAN I/O Expander The MCP250XX devices operate as I/O expanders for a CAN system. These devices feature several peripherals including eight digital I/O, four 10-bit A/D converters and two 10-bit PWM channels. In addition, the MCP250XX can automatically send messages when an input changes state, including when an analog channel exceeds a preset threshold. The device can also be configured to send A/D and digital I/O messages at regular intervals. Three bits (plus the RTR bit or one more ID bit for direction) are reserved in the identifier/arbitration field of the CAN message to communicate with the MCP250XX. This allows a master CAN node to communicate/control the CAN I/O Expanders via the CAN bus. Simple Sensor Network The MCP250XX is ideal for simple, low cost sensor networks. Particularly where the higher layers are proprietary so the system designer can maximize the MCP250XX features. The diagram below shows a four-node sensor network using only one MCU. MCP250XX CAN I/O Expander Features: Implements CAN 2.0 B Masks and filters to filter out unwanted messages Two receive buffers Three auto transmit buffers for sending messages automatically Non-volatile memory for user configuration Configuration can be modified via the CAN bus Message scheduling capability Sends GPIO and analog data Eight general purpose I/O pins individually selectable as inputs or outputs Individually selectable transmit-on-change for each input Four 10-bit analog channels with programmable conversion clock and VREF sources Individually selectable threshold detection Two 10-bit PWM outputs Low voltage operation ( V) 14-pin PDIP and SOIC MCP250XX CAN I/O Expander s Developer s Kit (DV250501) MCP2515 CAN Controller PICtail Demonstration Board (MCP2515DM-PCTL) MCP250XX MCP250XX Product specifications can be found on page Interface Products Design Guide

5 Controller Area Network (CAN) DESIGN EXAMPLE: BASIC CONNECTIONS USING CAN TRANSCEIVER MCP2551 CAN Transceiver The MCP2551 is a high speed CAN transceiver which serves as an interface between the CAN bus and the CAN controller. The MCP2551 implements the ISO physical layer requirements which is by far the most common physical layer for CAN. The MCP2551 converts between logic levels generated by the CAN controller and differential signal levels on the bus. The differential signal is less prone to electrical disturbances. The MCP2551 protects the CAN controller from electrical anomalies such as voltage spikes, short circuits and other electrical transients on the bus. The diagram below shows the basic connections for connecting the MCP2551. MCP2551 CAN Transceiver Features: Implements ISO physical layer requirements Suitable for 12V and 24V systems ±40V short circuit protection on the bus pins Automatic thermal shutdown protection MCP2551 CAN Transceiver Features (Cont.): ±250V transient protection on the bus pins Ground fault (permanent dominant) detection on the transmit input pin Keeps faulty transmitters from bringing down the bus due to a permanent dominant condition Externally controlled slope on the bus pins to reduce RFI emissions Power on reset and brown out detection Unpowered nodes will not disturb the bus Up to 112 nodes can be connected MCP2510/2515 CAN Developer s Kit (DV251001) MCP2515 CAN Controller PICtail Demonstration Board (MCP2515DM-PCTL) MCP250XX CAN I/O Expander Developer s Kit (DV250501) SOIC 8-Lead Evaluation Board (SOIC8EV) Basic Connections for Connecting the MCP2551 Product specifications can be found on page 13.

8 Infrared Communications DESIGN EXAMPLE: INFRARED DATA APPLICATIONS MCP2150 and MCP2155 IrDA Protocol Stack Controller The MCP215X devices allow an embedded systems designer to interface to popular IrDA standard devices (such as PDAs and PCs) using the embedded systems host controller UART and some I/O pins. The MCP215X implements the IrDA standard stack. At the application layer, the IrCOMM protocol (9-wire cooked service class) is the IrDA standard replacement for the serial cable. Thus the embedded systems designer will interface to the MCP215X as if it was a serial cable. The MCP215X does not implement the IR transceiver of the physical layer.
